I bet DX10 will fully utilized the full potential of G80/R600 architecture. |

Was wondering why is the ASUS 8600GTS priced more than the MSI 8600GTS I assume both are pre-clocked right?

I guess there might or might not be a 256bit 8600GTS. But one thing is confirmed, there will be a 512MB 8600GT or GTS. I have seen one from Calibre as well as the announcement at the Computex...
